Abstract
The experiment is concerned with the effect of delay between the control and display on tracking activity. Lag was introduced by 2 different filter networks. Used pursuit and compensatory display, 4 different target courses, and 5 delay intervals. "The results support the assumption that predictive behavior on the part of S is essential for skilled performance. Experimental task variables that impair short-term predictions about future target position seriously limit tracking efficiency." (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved)Keywords
